NEW BONE GAVE.
Discovery OF Human Remains Belonging
to the Mammoth Age.

Human remains which apparently be-
long to the age Of the mammoth and
rhinoceros, have been discovered in q
Belgian cave The discovery has been
made by NM. Marcel de Puydt and So
hest in the grotto of Rich-auX-RocheS
near Spy, in the province of Namur.
The floor Of the cave consists of a layer
of brown clay, which contained a skull
of comparatively recent age, Under
this was bone bed of calcareous tufa
containing remains of the elephant and
a species Of deer, and flint weapons
showing traces of use. Under this bed
was second layer of ossiferous earth,
containing remains Of rhinOceri and
deer, and rich in fints, bone imple-
ments, ivory plates of the mammoth
tusk carved with rude figures, and frag-
ments of pottery, including the bottom
of q vase of regular form and baked.
Beneath this bed was another layer Of
brown clay with numerous bony frag-
ments. Here, at from five to six meters
from the entrance to the cave,
two human skeletons were
found in natural position, and proba-
bly, intombed there. Along with the
skeletons were found other objects.
such as have been mentioned above.
Under this bed was the barren carbon
ferrous limestone rock. The skulls are

mum, the bones being very thick

dolicocephalous. The frontal sinus is
very marked, and the brow low. In
short, the characteristics of the skulls
approach, for the most part, those of
inferior races, and the other bones
found seem to indicate race of short
men. The conclusion drawn from the
discovery by NJ. Nadaillac is that the
Neander, that race of men, which NJ.
Quaterfages has shown to be persistent
through the ages, even to the present
day, without being incompatible with a
very marked intellectual development,
once lived on the banks of the Meuse
in most remote times, working the
flint, utilizing the bones of the animals
and the tusks of the mammoth, making
and firing vases Of clay, burying their
dead, and, in fine, possessing the rudi-
ments of civilization.-Enqiaeerjng.

wFssrER's CORN CROP

Farm Experiments Made by One OF Aliies
ica's Creates; Statesmen'
Daniel Webster tried, forty years
since, to see how large crop OF corn
he could raise on twelve-acre field OF
LIGHT sandy land at Marshfeld, and at
the same time to test several kinds ol
manure Three acres were manurea
with fish IN July, 1874, 100 barrels TO
the acre. These were plowed under as
fast as they were caught. In October
following five acres were manured with
kelp, twenty-five loads, or about elgh'
cords, to the acre. This was also
plowed under in the fall. Two acres
were manfred from the barn in April,
TWENTY-FIVE loads to the acre The re-
naming two acres were left without
manure, to try the virtues OF guano.
The whole twelve acres were ploWed
about the goth of April. The field was
then narrowed over at once, and drills
opened with a common horse plow,
four feet apart. On the 10th OF May
the whole field was planted with white
corn by dropping from four to SIX
kernels in each hill, three feet apart
On the Goth of June, the first dressing
of guano was applied, consisting OF 6Oo
pounds of guano mixed with twenty
| four loads of dry riddled earth, Ihls
was sown broadcast. On the 2Zd OF
July another dressing of guano was APP
/ piled, say about one-third the quantity
| first used. This was put near each
hill.
The result of the experiment was
this: Kelp stood No l, fish No, 2 barn
manure No. 3, guano No. H. AT harvest
the ears of corn were carefully meas
ured in baskets of equal size, one
basketful being reserved as a standard
to ascertain as nearly as possible the
product of the whole field. The weight
was found to be 373 pounds Of shelled
corn to a basket. The whole number
of baskets thus measured was l,O7S,
which multiplied by 379 gives as the re,
suit 40, 425 pounds. Let this be divided
by sixty-two, the number OF pounds
his corn weighed to the bushel, and
the answer is 652 bushels, or 545 to the
acre. ben PerieV P00rC.

POTATO FUNGUS,
How to Prevent the Rot without Injurins
the Seed Potatoes.

From the habit of growth of the
potato fungus it is evident that it is
quite impossible to cure a plant once
invaded by it. One may be able to
mitigate the evil somewhat, and pos
sibly prevent itin seasons not too favor
able to its development The weather
is beyond our control, but we can avoid
planting on low, heavy or poorly
drained lands. In a light or dry soil
the disease is less likely to appear. 1t
is very doubtful if we will be able TO
escape the disease by any selection Of
varieties, although something may b9
accomplished by this means.
The soaking of the potatoes used fPr
seed in a sol@ii, M,of blue yitriol VIII.
prevent thf5 70 1Fot liEffRt EfARt 1r5-rnrfre me t6-
tato when thus used for seed. The
amount to be used is four ounces in
sufficient water to cover bushel cf
potatoes immersed in it, letting them
soak for twenty-four hours. This will
effect the destruction of the mycelium
within the potatoes, but will not insure
the plants from infection from outside
sources, as from a neighboring field.
In order to guard against outside in
fection, it is recommended that the
vines be thoroughly busted over at the
first appearance of the blight, or if pos
sible little earlier, with powder pre-
pared as follows: In q vessel place 10
pounds of lime and 3 gallons Of water;
in another vessel place % pounds sui
phate of copper and 81 gallons Of boil
ing water; when cool mix the two
liquids and then pour the compound
upon 22O pounds Of quick lime, which
is allowed to slake.
The fungus Of the potato rot ceases
to develop at temperatures below "a
and above 50 GsSrees, and the myccIium
is killed if keptfor some time at tenn
perature above 10j degrees. Thus it is
possible to "disinfect" the seed potato
tubers by keeping them in an oven for
Il few hours at a temperature between
10j and 40 degrees. To raise the tenn
perature above this point might iniure
the value of the potatoes for seed.

They Knew Nina.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 19-Miss Nina
Clarke Van Zandt, the young lady who is
to marry August Spies, the condemned
Chicago Anarchist, is well remem-
bered by many people in this city,
where she was born and where
her childhood was passed. The family
resided for some years on Master street,
near Eighteenth, and the neighbors who
recall the little miss of ten or twelve
years of age as last seen by them, de
scribe her as a child full Of life, and
tending toward the genus known as "Tom-
boy" and manfesting at an early age the
self-will and determination that have
characterized her strongly in her rela-
tions with her lover, the Anarchist Spies
